Team 5: GamePod Spring 2014

Members

This project will make the popular 2048 game more interactive by adding in hand motions to move the tiles and will allow users to incorporate excercise. This prototype integrates a Xtion Pro, Raspberry Pi Model B,projector, and projector screen so the player can have an immersive experience with the game.

The 2048 game is extremely popular and already has a huge following. However, it can only be played via a keyboard with arrow keys or swiping motions on a mobile device, which hinders the exciting game play. By replacing mundane arrow key pressing with interactive hand gestures, users will get more of a kick out of the game and more physical freedom to express themselves.
